The Infinite Consortium was a mercantile organization that spanned several planes.[1]
Description
The Infinite Consortium specialized in procuring all possible items clients could ask for, even merchandise from other worlds collected by its planeswalkers. The Consortium was founded by Nicol Bolas but was usurped by Tezzeret in a bloody coup d'état several years before the Conflux. The headquarters, under Tezzeret's leadership, was located in the Iron Tower in a desert region of an unknown plane.[2]
While the individual cells survived to some extent, the organization as a whole was dissolved, when Jace Beleren crushed Tezzeret's mind and destroyed all the information needed to run the Consortium with him. With little direction, Jace could return to the remnants of the Ravnica cell and assume leadership of it. It is currently the not known if it is still an active cell.
Following Tezzeret's involvement with New Phyrexia, he spent some time visiting various former safehouses to collect supplies. The process of adding darksteel to his body renewed the memories Jace destroyed, and this allowed him to visit his former stashes. He then retreated to an unknown plane where he ran this group from to wait out the Phyrexian Invasion. [3]
